Writing on the Wall Wednesday 2/11/15I was driving through the city this weekend and saw a lot of cool graffiti. Others might say, "I was driving through the city this weekend and saw a lot of paint all over the walls, damn them kids". Graffiti is an interesting art form. So, let's use some Photoshop (or your image editing software of choice) to tag up some famous places.Contest Ended: February 20th, 2015

Wide Load Wednesday 11/12/14I was reading This Article About Big Butts last night, not the entire article though. I had to stop after three paragraphs as I started to feel my brain cells throwing themselves against the inside of my skull. Big butts? Really? I Guess it's time to reinforce all the chair legs. Although this is probably not the most politically correct thing to do, for this contest we are asking you to create images of people or animals with big butts/asses and please keep them clothed. You can use paintings as well as photo images.Contest Ended: November 21st, 2014

Smoking Sunday 8/10/14I remember as a child going to church on Sunday and then coming home to where my mother would cook a big dinner for the family. After we would finish eating my father would sit in his favorite chair and smoke his pipe. Sometimes I think I can still smell it, a fine blend of cherry and cow dung. For today's contest we ask you to create an image using smoke, any kind of smoke will do. Contest Ended: August 19th, 2014

Terrible Tuesday 7/08/14I don't know if you ever like to see bad Photoshop attempts. There are certainly a lot of them out there and there are sites devoted to them. Looking through the many images on this site, there are very few that would ever be seen in the "bad Photoshop" motif. The one that comes to mind is the one that represents a score of 1. Man, I love Hypertaf. So, make a terrible image...let's see if we can get on a site like this one?Contest Ended: July 17th, 2014

WTF Wednesday 5/7/14How much dang junk mail does one person get in a year? I mean how many times has one of those things ever led to sale? When I collect the mail, I usually walk down to the box, retrieve the contents, and then walk into the garage and deposit half of it in the garbage can. Now I'm at least recycling the paper instead of tossing it in the garbage. But still, why am I being inconvenienced by this stuff? So, do us all a favor and create some images of junk mail.Contest Ended: May 17th, 2014

Memory Monday 4/21/14There are days when I think I've lost my mind. I'll forget to do stuff. Maybe my brain is going on strike or something. Maybe it's not getting enough exercise. Maybe I should give it some more activity by doing some Sudoku? I'm not really sure any more what I'm talking about. Anyway, your mission in this one is to simply chop brains. Not in real life, but in the digital one.Contest Ended: May 1st, 2014

Snowstorm Saturday 12/7/13It's that time of year when the white stuff starts falling from the sky. After the last storm warnings (Thanksgiving) and with today's light snow, I'm wondering if the weather people are in bed with the grocery store clerks.

Pictionary 2/22/13Man, it's been a while since I've thought of Pictionary. That game where you draw pictures on a piece of paper in hopes that a team member can guess a phrase. Much like the answers on the theme image are "dollar sign", "long arm of the law", and "home sick". So, for this contest, open up your favorite image editing software of choice and manually sketch or creatively draw a Pictionary clue. Contest Ended: March 4th, 2013
